NOTHING PERSONAL
A COLLABORATION IN BLACK AND WHITE
Gillespie Gallery of Art
August 26 - November 15, 2024
This exhibition closely examines the book, Nothing Personal (1964), a collaborative artwork in book form by two legendary American artists, James Baldwin, the African American writer, public intellectual, and civil rights activist, and Richard Avedon the Jewish fashion and portrait photographer. Nothing Personal is a unique cultural object, presenting images of celebrity and the celebration of exceptionalism alongside depictions of the corrosive effects of capitalism and racism on society.
